Context of Luke 13:35

33but I must needs walk to-day and to-morrow and the [day] following, for it must not be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem. 34Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the [city] that kills the prophets and stones those that are sent unto her, how often would I have gathered thy children together, as a hen her brood under her wings, and ye would not. Behold, your house is left unto you; and I say unto you, that ye shall not see me until it come that ye say, Blessed [is] he that comes in the name of [the] Lord.

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 35Your house - ̔ , the temple - called here your house, not my house - I acknowledge it no longer; I have abandoned it, and will dwell in it no more for ever.
